Medical providers hold immense power through their knowledge of the body, power which can be used ethically as a servant for the public good, or selfishly for personal gain. Three primary ethical principles should govern your medical provider’s communication with you:

Patient First
(Beneficence)

Ethical practitioners are committed to putting your needs before their own through caring about your whole person and disclosing any conflicts of interest.

Ethical practitioners respect your dignity and power to choose by providing all the information you need to make an informed decision about your healthcare.
